    Twas the night before Christmas, and all through this great site
    Not a member was posting, except those who regularly argue and fight


    The postings were neat, as they always appear
    In hopes that our dear Paul Wilders, might even show up here


    The Mods were nestled all snug in their beds
    While visions of being named Admin, all danced in their heads


    While out in the forums there rose such a clatter
    Ronjor sprang from his bed to see what was the matter.


    Away to the forums, he logged in so fast,
    Read each new posting, from the first to the last


    The posts all apeared as one would first think so
    Until he spotted one buried deep far below


    When, what to his wondering eyes should appear,
    But more posts of AV tests, that all hated and feared


    He was joined by his fellow Admin, so lively and quick,
    We knew in a moment, it must be led by St. Nick.


    More rapid than eagles, LowWaterMark came,
    And he bellowed, and shouted, and called them by name;


    "Now, Peter! now, Bubba! now, Blackspears and Blue!
    Get back to your moderating, or whatever it is you do


    Check each thread carefully, so none break the law
    Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!"


    I heard LWM exclaim, as he logged out for the night,
    "Happy Holidays to all, and to all a good-night."

    I hope you are all resting with your families and loved ones at this time.... some of us have to work through Christmas (sigh)...but even then I hope you have some time to reflect on the year gone by.

    Merry Christmas to all the folks at Wilders! Thanks for hosting this wonderful site. This is probably the site I visit the most and longest than the news medium. It was an interesting year and always exciting the next day. :thumb:

    The poem was written as a way of saying thanks to all the mods and admin here for what they do for us. For giving us this place to come and work with vendors to make better products. Everyone benefits from this but I am sure for all the Wilders staff it can be a trying event with folks like me, and err, a few others.

    We may not always agree, but I really think they deal with things as logically and politely as possible. When that poem was written at work today, hmm, did I say that, I dont know the ranking here of all the staff so please except my apology if the poem appears to slight anyone.

    Personally I look at all of you equally that equally do a great job. I have been a Admin on a site about this size and it is painstaking. Now I also want to say you have some good members here because the antics I see here are nothing compared to other places. It really would be nice to see something here which explains how Wilders got started with a brief overview of the site and its staff.

    Of course LWM will more then likely land on my roof tonight and leave me a lump of coal and a years pass to the Time-out room.;)

    Merry Christmas to all of the Wilders Staff.

    This card has a blanket sig that covers all your members.:thumb:

    If you've seen many other forums, it's easy to see the Wilders mods/staff do a great job here. :thumb:
